ISAIAH 47 Vs 1 KJV-Lite™ VERSES

ISAIAH 47 vs 1 KJV-lite™ VERSES www.ilibros.net/KJV-lite.html The book of Isaiah has two great divisions; first: chapters 1–39; God’s Criticism of both rebel houses Israel and Judah, thereby affecting all the local neighbors in the hood; and second: chapters 40–66; God’s Consolation to both houses who have separate histories. The great Isaiah scroll found in the Qumran caves, dated from the 2nd century BC has put to rest many wild speculations about prophet Isaiah. In Isaiah chapters 45, 46, 49, 51, & 52 we hear lots of talk about salvation and being saved by the Holy One of Israel, the Savior, leading up to the chapter that orthodox Jewish leaders still love to hide from the great people of Judah, from whom would come Messiah. In the previous chapter (which continues) the Lord leveled the toppling idols of Baal and Nebo, and all the mass-produced wood and stone and clay artifacts and little lifeless manmade junk attempting to replace God’s word with stuff created in their imagination; even as He declared: I am God; and there is no other; there is no one like Me. This chapter continues His declaration and deals with Babylon the root marketer of idolatry. The earliest church leaders including Augustine seemed to say with enthusiasm: Babylon is a former Rome, and Rome a later Babylon. Rome is a daughter of Babylon, and by her, as by her mother, God has subdued the world under one sway. Augustine did not considered this chapter of Isaiah; chapters in the Revelation to John. These are prophetic chapters, not merely describing history 2500 years ago, but history yet being fulfilled. The Lord said… 1 Come down and sit in the dirt, O virgin daughter of Babylon / remember this is an analogy; we are not learning about some unknown, faithless, whoring woman; we are actually learning about a govt populated with men – who will claim they like women, and swear they elevate one to queen of heaven status. While their history reveals they may like to secretly rape women cloistered in their monasteries; they prefer to turn their pedophilia loose on unsuspecting children – mostly seducing and abusing males – you wonder if they even cross-dress in women’s clothing.
